Exceptional Defense in a Complex Product Liability Case

When our manufacturing company faced a significant product liability lawsuit in Louisiana, the stakes were incredibly high. We engaged Michelle Roy at Forman Watkins & Krutz, and it was the best decision we could have made. Her 17 years of experience, particularly her recognized expertise in defending product liability and mass tort cases, was immediately evident. Michelle possesses a rare combination of deep legal acumen and practical, strategic thinking. She meticulously deconstructed the plaintiff's claims, guided us through every discovery phase with clarity, and her negotiation posture was formidable. Her background from Loyola University New Orleans and her recognition by Best Lawyers weren't just credentials on paper; they translated directly into a superior defense strategy. The case settled on terms far more favorable than we anticipated, protecting our reputation and bottom line. Michelle is not just a brilliant litigator; she is a trusted advisor who manages complex legal challenges with unwavering professionalism and genuine care for her client's business.
